Beautiful Low Miles Porsche 993 C4 on 2040-cars

Year:1996 Mileage:37026
Location:

Loveland, Colorado, United States

Loveland, Colorado, United States

The 993 is the last of the air cooled, some would say the last of the best Porsches made.  This is the narrow body C4 which is by far the most rare of the standard 993 models, with only 1860 delivered world wide.  I am the third owner and have owned the car since 2009.  The car has been in Texas, Colorado, California and is now back in Colorado.   Since I have owned the car it has always been garaged and never driven in the rain or any inclement weather.  There are no dents on the car, one slight ding on the passengers door was repaired.  It doesn't photograph and you actually can't see it.  There is a small chip in two of the 17" cup wheels.  The wheels are shod with good Michelin Pilot Sports tires, 205/50/ZR17 front and 255/40/ZR17 rear.  Center caps for the wheels are painted black Carrera 4.  Everything works on the car, there are no mechanical issues.  I have the entire service history for the car, including the original window sticker and the original bill of sale.  The interior of the car is in great shape with no rips, tears, or cracks.  The car was never smoked in.  Front seat bolsters show the usual wear patterns on the seat bottoms.  The original radio has been upgraded with a euro model Becker Grand Prix, which exactly matches the 993 dash board.  It has iPod connection as well as a disk player and bluetooth connection.  Speakers were up graded with Focal speakers installed in the stock speaker locations.  The entire sound system looks perfectly stock.

The car is from my collection and is pristine inside, outside, top an bottom.  I seriously doubt you can find one cleaner.  It comes with all books and records.  All glass is great and free from chips.  I have in hand a clear Colorado title

I have tried to describe this car as well as I can.  I'm a knowledgable owner/enthuaist but occassionally everyone misses something.  I encourage you to come inspect the car in person or arrange for a PPI.  Since we took the pictures we have retired and moved from California to Colorado, about 1 hour north of Denver.

The successful bidder must provide a $1000 non-refundable security deposit within 48 hours of the end of the auction.

Below is a scan of a PPI I had done as a service to the bidders, frankly it doesn't read to be very thorough, but on the other hand the tech seemed to have really gone over the car.  I want you to know and I will inform all bidders.  It looks as though at one time before I owned the car the stone guard onthe rockers was refreshed.  I was going over all the service files and my servicing point, Hergesheimer MotorSports, picked up faint tape line on both rocker panels.  It was in some fine print and I'd never seen it before.  I just went out and checked and sure enough although the match is perfect the stone guards have been touched up.  I'm pretty sure from the factory there wouldn't be a tape line.  It looks like a small popsicle stick and some 1000 grit sand paper would take care of the line.  They're very faint.

Also the trim covers for both doors (they're plastic covers on the very front of the door) are cracked.  They're $3.99 each and should have been replaced but weren't.  Finally there are 3 scratches on the passenger side sill trim, that's a black rubberized plastic.  Hergs also found a surface scratch both the hood and fender, my detail guy polished them out.

Although no CEL was thrown Hergesheimer did detect fault codes PO410 #80.  They traced the fault to the check valve and air boot both were replaced, and I've never had any problems (in fact I never knew there was a problem)

Think that's about it.

Thanks
Bill

One more update.  My detail guy just told me he thought the front and rear bumpers had some repaint.  I can't tell,  but bidders need to evaluate this information in their bid


Thanks

Magnus Walker and Alex Ross stop by Leno's garage with their 997 GT2

Mon, Feb 9 2015

The market is littered with Porsche 911 tuners, with names like 9ff, Gemballa and TechArt leading the field. Seldom do any two ever collaborate on a joint project, but that's just the kind of match that was made at Jay Leno's Garage. That's where Alex Ross of SharkWerks and restomodder Magnus Walker first met, sparking a collaboration that yielded the car you see here. And fittingly, they've brought it back to the garage to show off what resulted. Though Walker usually deals with older Elfens, this time he applied his eye for style on a more contemporary 2008 997 GT2, decking it out with grey stripes, orange bumpers, gold wheels and decals and a tartan-upholstered interior. He left the mechanical bits to Ross and company, who dropped the suspension and increased output to 650 horsepower at the wheels (775 at the crank), surpassing the stock GT2 and even the later GT2 RS. The result is pretty hard-core and old-school, but you'll want to watch the video above to see for yourself.

Meet the man that discovered and restored the oldest existing Porsche

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

Luciano Rupolo is an absolutely fascinating gentleman. He was born in France but spent nearly his entire life in Italy as an auto mechanic running his own shop. His grandfather and father instilled a love of sports cars in him that he carried on by historic racing in Italy for decades. He saw his life-long automotive passion repaid when he found and restored the car that might have been the first Porsche registered for the road.
You can spot in his garage a split-window Corvette, Ferrari 250 GTE and other exotics, but Rupolo's most interesting automotive story concerns his Iso Grifo Competizione (pictured above). The sports coupe was found in the Canary Islands as little more than a shell, but Rupolo got help from a prestigious source for its restoration. The result is a motoring masterpiece.
Rupolo is a fantastic storyteller with a captivating, tale to tell. Settle in, scroll down and watch the bittersweet documentary about his life with one of the first Porsches.

Sunday Drive: A tale of old favorites and upcoming challengers

Sun, Oct 8 2017

Sedans and crossovers dominated the attention of our readers last week, led by the completely redesigned 2018 Honda Accord. It's the Japanese automaker's flagship, and people are seriously interested in finding out how good the latest Accord is. So interested, in fact, that no other single story came close to the brand-new Accord in Autoblog reader interest. Moving down the list we find the equally new 2018 Buick Enclave. The three-row crossover has a lot to offer a family, especially one looking for a nice, quiet ride. If you're looking for the exact opposite of nice and quiet, but still want enough room for you and your significant others, the Subaru WRX that we tested last week may be the perfect ride for you. Or, if you just want to drive fast and aren't at all worried about space, there's the Camaro SS. See? We offer something for everybody. From there, we look to the future. Who isn't interested in seeing the first fully electric vehicle from Porsche? And who isn't intrigued to see the Mission E testing alongside a gaggle of Teslas? A brand-new Jeep is always a big deal, especially when it's the revival of a classic nameplate like the Grand Wagoneer. And finally, we have something completely different: the Rezvani Tank. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Honda Accord First Drive | Feels like home again 2018 Buick Enclave First Drive Review | Fortress of quietude 2018 Subaru WRX Drivers' Notes | Turbo traditionalist 2018 Chevy Camaro SS Drivers' Notes | Demonstrative power, middling interior Porsche Mission E caught testing against Teslas Jeep three-row SUV caught on public roads — Grand Wagoneer, perhaps?
